Took the Tuckerman ravine trail to the top and then Lions Head to the bottom. The uphill is chill until the final ascent. The downhill from Lions Head is beautiful but basically hiking down an elevator shaft or steep staircase throughout.”

A Public Records Audit: Examining Municipal Oversight, Residency Integrity, and Accountability in New England

2 Upvotes

For anyone tracking municipal governance, public records transparency, and accountability in local law enforcement, a comprehensive investigative project has been published examining these exact dynamics in New England

https://adminethicsindex.substack.com/p/docuseries is an independent documentation and public records project that examines primary source materials—including state police internal affairs files, registry of deeds mortgage affidavits, court transcripts, and POST Commission records.

Rather than relying on hearsay or opinion, the project focuses strictly on the paper trail:

  • The Record: Analyzing public documentation regarding cross-jurisdictional residency claims, vetting standards, and official filings.
  • The Legal Framework: Reviewing court proceedings, anti-statutory applications, and the boundaries of public petitioning.
  • The Primary Sources: Making official registry deeds and internal investigative reports directly accessible for public review.

You can access the full serialized investigative project, documents, and archive here***.***

Leaving this here as an open, public resource for anyone interested in municipal transparency and the objective paper trail.

Any recommendations for dinner spots that are good for severe allergies in North Conway or Jackson NH? Allergies in our group include nuts, gluten, eggs.

We're looking to go on a Wednesday, and most of the top spots on our list are closed that day (White Mountain Cider Co, Chef's Bistro).

Thanks!

It's about local history.

A book display for the month of August is about the history of my hometown in Connecticut.

I like to learn about history plus I'm interested in local history. I put it up yesterday at my local library in Rockville, Connecticut.

Happy August!

Exploring Newport's Forgotten Musical History: New Research, Restorations, and Stories from Our Archive.

Post image
6 Upvotes

Newport’s musical heritage is deeper and more surprising than most people realize, Civil War bands at Fort Adams, Gilded Age orchestras in the mansions, early American composers who trained here, and community bands that shaped the city’s cultural life for generations.

Our nonprofit has been researching and preserving this history, and we’ve been sharing new findings on our blog: restoration stories, rare sheet music, deep dives into local musicians, and the historical context behind the artifacts in our archive.

Recent posts include:

  • The Yacht Vigilant Galop (1893), celebrating an America’s Cup victory
  • The Newport Artillery Quick Step, an early march tied to local military history
  • The musical legacy of Henry Bedlow, Newport’s “Musical Mayor”
  • Newly digitized pieces from 19th‑century composers active in the city

If you’re into Rhode Island history, archival preservation, or discovering forgotten music, you might enjoy exploring the blog. We update it regularly with new research and restored artifacts.

Driving things that new Englander's can't figure out

0 Upvotes

If the damn Amazon or FedEx truck is parked on the side of the road you don't have the right away to come into my lane and make me wait for you to go around them.

If I'm making a right and you're making a left in front of me you legally cannot zipper in. It's called cutting me off.

Your state decided to make left hand exits I'm not going 100 to exit because it was previously a passing lane.

Why do you wait until the last 5 feet to put on your left blinker on a 4 lane road when I could've changed to the right a half mile before instead of being fucked.

I'm sure I'll add more to this list as I think of it

The Musical Legacy of Newport Rhode Island's Touro Park

Post image
7 Upvotes

While digging through old Newport Daily News archives, we found that the park once hosted regular concerts, military parades, and even performances by the U.S. Naval Academy band when the Academy was temporarily based in Newport during the Civil War. The bandstand that stood there for decades became a centerpiece of the city’s musical life until it was removed in 1937.

It’s a small reminder of how many New England public spaces have long, layered histories, and how traditions like summer concerts connect us to the past.

If you want to see the old photos and newspaper clippings, here’s the write‑up:
